We're midway in our current challenge at the Magnolia-licious and Wee Stamps Challenge Blog where the theme is...WEATHER WAYS. Show some kind of weather in your card/project--sunny, wintry, snowy, rainy, icy, cold, hot, foggy, etc. You have one more week to join the challenge. It's Magnolia-licious Team B's turn to show our cards/projects for you inspirations.

So I went with the wintry snowy weather...

I've done some masking work in the stamping of the two Magnolia images I used here. The colouring was done with my Letraset Promarker and Pantone Tria markers.

Although this Tilda is an older Tilda, she is still one of my favorite Christmas images.

This is another easel card from me, but this time it is a twisted easel card. I've taken pictures of the card on display from a couple of different angles...

You can't really tell from the picture, but this is actually a mini card. The card measures only 4 inches in diameter.
I've also made this into an easel card. I just love the way I can staged easel cards on display.

I've coloured her with my Letraset markers--Promarkers and Pantone Trias... and a black coloured pencil to deepen the shades. LOL...I've got a few I've coloured that are in the garbage bin. This is the only one I'm quite happy with to put on a card.

It's time for a new challenge at Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge Blog. It's our Challenge #88 and is being hosted by the lovely May and for the theme she has chosen everyone's favorite...anything goes. For more details on the challenge and how to join in the fun, hop over to Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge. Have a look also at the fabulous cards and projects that my DT teammates have created. I hope they will inspire you to join us.

This is what I've created for my DT card.

A surprise in the inside! I have made this into a 3-step card as you can see here.
I was trying to find an image and a sentiment to match ones on the card front. Got this idea from Angela...thanks, Angela!

This is a different version of the step card than the ones I've made in the past (HERE and HERE). When you first open the card, the stairs here are in front of you rather than facing to the right as in my previous cards. The size of this card is 6" x 6".

I have used my Letraset Promarker and Pantone Tria markers to colour the images for this card.

I am using a background stamp from Magnolia as the main feature--
- Waterlily Background from the Once Upon A Time Collection 2013.
The Frog Prince is from a separate Magnolia stamp from their Jubilee Collection 2007--all coloured up, cut out and mounted on foam tape.

I've drawn up the templates for the base of this card, both in inches and centimetres. See my posting below this one or click HERE.
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your visits very much. Love reading your comments too. Have a fabulous weekend!

This 3-step card (posted HERE) is bigger than the one I've made before--this is my usual size of 6" x 6". Also I've added a little twist as the stairs are now facing you when you open the card, instead of to the side.

I'm not doing a tutorial on this one, but am just supplying you with the templates, but you can refer to my tutorial for the smaller card HERE if you're not certain of where to cut, how to fold or where to apply glue.
